This reminds me of a talk by Jim Wierich I heard years ago where he pretends to design a new vcs in order to explain how git works.

I'm not sure if a full recording can be found anywhere other than buying it from Pragmatic Programmers. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bBQJP6D8aGY

The talk is only available as a screencast from the Pragmatic Programmers, but the slides are freely available on my github account (https://github.com/jimweirich/presentation_source_control).

I use this talk as an introduction to any Git Immersion workshops that I run (see also http://gitimmersion.com/)
